No, all this photos were made at another regiment - at Besovets, you did'nt find photos of you favoride Su-27s there.

Welcome, Mfezi.

As i saw earlier main theme of all real, (not fake) news for Su-57 - "time will tell" - now only one thing is clear - first serial batch will be 12 aircrfats., at least two of them will donate to Lipetsk center in 2019, after few years of test operation will make a disicision how many Su-57s will order. As says Russians - "better a tomtit in your hand than a crane in the sky". Anyway quantity of Su-57s aircarft in production will not much more, than Su-35Ss and Su-30SMs , which now choose as main fighter aircrafts for RuAF, and in next few years completely will replace Su-27s and

News of this sort appear in yellow press already as more, than year - thiere no official release of Russian MoD, now in tests pre-serial T-50s with second stage engine, after this will produce small batch of aircrats for test operation and even after this will make decision about state order of Su-57 (how much and when). As example - 12 serial Su-57 from first batch will put to Lipetsk RuAF center, first will donate in 2019. And sanctions here is not at all - in military aircrafts in Russia not used outboard components.

Dark grey - mid production, form T-10B-22 to T-10B-45, only 23 aircrafts, one of its were damaged at landing and still in non-fly conditon, all Su-34s after this again painted in blue-green camouflage - about 75 aircrafts at nowdays. In Syria operated Su-34s in both paintings - in Dark Grey painting in first stage and later in blue-green camouflage, all airctafts. which operated in Syria have misson marks. All of its will be in decal. About armament - sometime its laser-gilded or Glonass-giulded bombs, sometimes - A-S missiles, but main wapon - iron bombs and cluster bombs - new target

As always - it is corporate conspiracy between model and decal producers for increase sell of model. All did for one way - you will want biuld not one model... How about this Su-34 in camouflage with Su-24M pilot name, who were killed in Syria - on both boards: Or how about heavy weathering eggplant scheme Su-34 after Syria with with traces of shading and later washing insignia:

Russian enamels not siuted (or wery rare) by FS or RAL, and especially don't coincide to model enamels. As for Su-33 - its upgrade of repaint is not so frequent event - its enamel is non-standard even for RuAF colours.

Sorry, but in Russia we never saw at least half of enamels, which are you looking for in colour charts.

You can made one from Su-34's which known at nowdays with any type of weapon from this decal. Instruction consist only 28 markings, but its show only all main and typical aircrafts, but you can made model any of 119 Su-34s, which produced at today. There is T-10B-119, untill end of 2018 there will be about 125-130 Su-34s

At first look Su-34 decal 1\48 will be something like this:

Today i'm start design decal for Su-34 in 1-48 scale - and find some mistakes - KH used for board numbers in decal "Su-35 style" digits, but for Su-34 use other style digits, and NO STEP zone is enlarged - i'm not recieve KH Su-34 model yet, but after this i'll check this elements. This zones placed presise over main gear wheels cover casing panele.

I'm buy not Neomrga, but Helicast Resin setrs for Mi-17V5 and Mi-8AMTSh http://www.helicast.pro/heli

1-72 i hope in the end of this summer, 1-48 - during autumn 2018.

Yes, Chris, russians did all for confuse western modellers and producers. I would say in this case - учебное пособие - land (non flying) testbed for retraining future technicans and engeneers. I can say you more - even RF-XXXXX register can be moved from one aircraft to another in same regiment and even transfert to other type of aircraft. As example - same T-10B-21 Su-34 - code RF-95803 in different time used on Mi-8 helicopter, Su-34 with board number 03 and only after this to Su-34 with board number 04. https://russianplanes.net/regs/RF-95803 To d

Yes, i'm fully finished Su-34 1-72 decal design, now i'm "polished" instruction - if you will wake up me in 2 o'clock of night and ask "what differences between T-10B-21 and T-10B-87" - i'm even can ask you, if you are not Western spy. Now i'm wait Kittyhawk sprues for fit some decal elements to this model too, not only to HobbyBoss - after this i can finished 1-48 decal design.

Chris, this is another one Su-34 with board number 04, on my photo - T-10B-21 with grey RWRs, on you photo - T10B-87 - with white RWRs,

Initial Su-34s hadn't this fences, here is last Su-34s in first edition of camouflage (i'm call its camouflage type before 2011) - T-10B- 21 red 04, RF-95801, later RF-95803 - it were last Su-34s with Grey RWRs, without APU and without fences. Since next Su-34 - T-10B-22, red 05, RF-95806 - first aircraft in Dark Grey painting, white RWRs, first aircraft with APU and first aircraft with fences: Probably since this Su-34 were added "mistery hole after Zactoman" too - as were add air scrops on bottom surfaces under fin - i suppose in same time add

BTW - not only Su-34s with Knibiny pods have this fences - as example - one of latest , but with launch unit - with fence

This one?

It is Su-34 (T-10B-21), red 04 and Su-34 (T-10B-17), red 09, both were produced in 2011, photo made in the end of 2016. Probably later during upgrade and install APU will added fence. Which mistery hole are you mean?

This fences mounted starting one of Drak Eggplant Grey painting Su-34s, so not all Su-34s had it.

Su-27P, serial no 36411, were produced at 1992, initial had red board number 07, in 2001 number changed to blue 38, in 2012 were upgraded to Su-27SM3, now have red board number 64 nowdays:

Yes, RWR tips can be demounted and changed to another one, one time i saw Su-27 with two different colours tips - one were green one id white. But all other Su-27s had same tips - both white or both green.
